Introduce Yourself Here

Hi Everyone,
First a thanks for Giles to invite me into this forum.
I'm Danny, 47 years old and a denimhead for many years now.
I always use to wear the jeans from Nudie Jeans and other commercial brands, but this year I got my eyes opened when I saw a collabjeans between Benzak Denim Developers and Samurai (whitch I now owned by the way ;D)
And because of these Samurai jeans I discover a whole new world of Japanese brands as Oni Denim and of course Iron Heart.
I also read a lot of info from the webite from Denimhunters, and by this site I did my first purcase of the UHF shirts from Iron heart.
At this moment I got two UHF shirts and it's by far the best Flannel shirt on the market.
I'm also gathering info about the N1 deck jacket because I really love it.I'm Living in Holland and getting my hands on a piece of Iron Heart clothing is difficult in this country, especcialy when you want something different than only the jeans.
So I'm depending on the website of Iron Heart and the shops in Germany. (is at least a two and a half hour drive for me)
But I hope to read a lot of inspiring stories on this Forum and I'm happy to be a family member of the Iron Heart community
Kind regards
Danny

Welcome Danny, great intro.
One of the great things about this place is getting advice and help with buying unseen from the web store. Feel free to ask anything…

Welcome @Danny-S .
Where in the Netherlands are you located? I drive from Cologne to Texel on a fairly regular basis. If you live en route, I can arrange delivery of everything you buy at kentaurus.de

How’s it going guys and gals,
I’m Lance from Tucson, AZ, USA.
Just a stop for a few years though, I’m in the military so I move around a lot.
I’m a diesel mechanic in the Air Force. Been about 10 years already.
The wife and I are actually trying to get to the UK next! Hopefully.
I’ve been into workwear for a long time but I can finally afford Iron Heart. My wife’s gonna kill me.
I’ve actually been coming on the forums since 2016 but just started posting since I’m buying more stuff now.
Little bit about me. I’m married, we have a 3 year old son. Love metal! Doom, stoner, death mostly but I like it all. 2 dobermans! I cut hair for a side gig and I detail cars. I love Lord Of the Rings!
Looking forward to meeting y’all.

Hello from Tennessee USA!
I have been paying attention and admiring Iron Heart clothing since around 2016. I first was introduced to the brand by browsing motorcycle forums, Instagram accounts, and Pinterest photos. I have always been a sucker for faded denim, but I never really had the patience to wear through the first few months of dark and not washing them. I grew up in a household that washed everything on warm and tumble-dried everything for hours. Often you could smell elastic in boxer waistbands cooking when you opened the dryer. This produced very soft clothes, but very uninteresting and muted fades on all clothes. To add insult to injury, I almost always had to buy larger than I wear because clothes shrink when put through this abuse. I digress, but here I am. I purchased a pair of IH-666s around December 1, followed by a pair of IH-777s around December 10. Just last night I purchased my first UHF. I can't believe I am already in at over $1k, but this stuff is just made so well and has such an enormous and cool fan base. I am working on my first couple of jeans and already have my eye on a pair of 25oz IH-888s. Hopefully I have the courage and the wherewithal to sustain the journey. I just melt when I see photos of the fades online and I can't wait to be able to sport the same on my clothing.
Cheers.

Will post some early fade pics of my 21od jeans soon.
EDIT: Looks like my intro post got either deleted or placed elsewhere. Weird…

These two threads have become interchangeable, and arguably could be merged. We aren’t sticklers though and appreciate when folks say hello, whichever thread it is on.

Ah, thanks @neph93 . Hadn't had my morning coffee yet.

Please forgive the newbie question, but is there a thread about properly vintage stuff?
I've got an old sheepskin coat that my father gave me, specifically, that I'd be interested if any of the old-timers knew anything about. Bit of a long shot, I know.
So I'm wondering if there's a thread for "check out this cool thing" or "clothing with a personal story" or "cool family hand-me-downs" kind of thing.

@EdH I reckon the random questions thread would be a good shout, sounds a great jacket with a great story

@LewisStonehouse Can you help me locate it? I'm not having much luck! Thanks!
